Hi, people asked me about what digital recorder I used instead of audacity. I have an Olympus digital voice recorder WS100, cost approx $200 but not sure about this. Not cheap but absolutely full proof, ie my students can't bend them! They have 5 folders which can each hold up to 10 files ie you can record the whole class and then just plug it into your laptop to download and save. They are saved as Windows Media audio files. They are small, easy to use and great for just putting on the desk and recording students. The recording level is excellent. Hope this helps, Jeni Lemberg
